The State Board of Education has approved a policy that seeks to reassert control over North Carolina charter schools weeks after the General Assembly shifted decision-making on applications to another panel.
“What judgment will we use in determining funding?” Davis said. “We’ll use the same judgment that we use in determining funding for any school.”
But last month the GOP-dominated legislature overrode Cooper’s veto of the bill that renamed the advisory board the Charter School Review Board. Its charter decisions are now final, with the State Board of Education hearing appeals. Eight of the 11 members of the review board are picked by the House speaker and Senate leader.
Davis said the State Board of Education needed to act now because the review board will meet next week to reconsider charter applications for two schools that were rejected by the State Board of Education.
